Theobroma Chocolat Dark

The plain dark chocolate bar gives you a good guage of how good their chocolate is, and this is such a bar. The Quebec, Canada chocolatier Theobroma Chocolat makes chocolate from natural and pure ingredients using sustainable agriculture; they use a variety of Trinaterio and Forasterio beans from Africa and South America; this bar is at 60% cacao content.The ingredient listing is good and short, cocoa mass, sugar cane, cocoa butter and soy lecithin (all but the lecithin are organic).

How does it taste? The chocolate is good, snaps well, smells good, and is a good dark chocolate. It tells me that it can stand on its own, and that other ingredients just enhance the flavour. I still prefer the Banana Chunks bar, but this one is pretty good.
